Social protection assessment based national dialogue: Towards a nationally defined social protection floor in Indonesia

Description of existing social security and social protection schemes for each of the four social protection floor guarantees, identification of policy gaps and implementation issues, recommendations, rapid costing exercise to estimate the cost of completing the social protection floor.

The social protection fl oor framework can be used to describe existing social security, social protection, and poverty alleviation programmes, identify policy gaps and implementation issues, and draw recommendations for the further design and implementation of social protection provisions in order to guarantee at least the social protection floor to all the population. The cost of the proposed social protection provisions is then estimated and projected over a ten-year period. This costing exercise can serve as a basis for discussions on the fiscal space and government budget reallocations and in turn help to prioritize between possible social protection policy options.
